This is the City Clerk's status for the council file itself, not the outcome of the measure. A file often stays open after the Council has already adopted an item. The summary above reflects the latest recorded action.

Brief

The Mayor initiated this grant application to secure Byrne State Crisis Intervention Program (SCIP) Cohort 2 funding for FY 2025-2027. The City Administrative Officer report from June 2026 outlines the grant terms and fiscal impact. Both the Public Safety Committee (August 26) and Budget and Finance Committee (September 15) approved the action, moving the file toward Council adoption.

Full summary

This file authorizes Los Angeles to accept a $1 million grant from the Board of State and Community Corrections under the Byrne State Crisis Intervention Program, Cohort 2. The grant's stated purpose is to strengthen enforcement of domestic violence restraining orders and ensure that individuals subject to those orders comply with firearm relinquishment requirements. The performance period runs from August 1, 2025 through September 30, 2027. Grant funds will cover partial salary costs for three positions in the Mayor's Office and two positions in the City Attorney's Office, as well as American Sign Language interpreters and Communication Access Real Time services provided by the Department on Disability. There is no local match requirement, and the City Administrative Officer confirmed the grant carries no additional impact to the General Fund. All expenditures are limited to grant-eligible activities in compliance with the City's Financial Policies. The Mayor submitted the initial report on March 20, 2026, which was referred to both the Budget and Finance Committee and the Public Safety Committee. A revised Mayor report followed in May 2026, and the CAO issued its fiscal analysis on June 18, 2026. The Public Safety Committee approved the item on August 26, 2026, and the Budget and Finance Committee voted 5-0 to concur on September 15, 2026, also noting and filing the original Mayor report. The file has been forwarded to the full Council for final action, which remains pending.
